Fred was born in Winnipeg in 1948, the son of Fredrick and Barbara Godfrey. He was raised in the north end of Winnipeg by his loving parents and special loved ones Ruth and Joe Antiniuk. Fred's first passion in life was cars, he collected, adored and repaired many vehicles with his early childhood friends. In his early twenties he met his wife, Delaine Murray and wed shortly after in 1971. Fred was lovingly embraced into the Murray family having gained new brothers to hunt, fish and snowmobile with. Shortly after, the couple started their family, raising both daughter Jody and son Andrew in Charleswood. Fred is most remembered for his love of travel, food and time spent with family. His home has always been a place of collective, joyous celebration. Fred is survived by his wife Delaine and two children, Jody and Andrew (Robyn) and many cousins. He was predeceased by his mother and father, Fred and Barbara. Funeral services will take place at Chapel Lawn Funeral Home, 4000 Portage Avenue at 10:00 a.m. on Friday, December 5, 2014.

  • Dear Deae and family, Fred and I had snowmobiles and cars together. But as cousins I love him dearly I will miss his smile and his laughter. Our talks were always of how much he was proud of the children and loved you dearly. He was taken much too young from us. But he is in peace now. We will all miss him. Our prayers are with you.

  • Fred...I will miss the times we spent sitting on your back deck drinking coffee and chatting.... I always enjoyed your company and all the advice you had to offer me. The best advice you ever gave me still sticks with me and I am trying to make it happen... unfortunately I cannot share it with anyone because you told me...."the best advice someone can give you is the advice you never share with anyone"... (not a 100% sure I understand that one lol, but I think I got the gist of it). You always had fresh coffee and lots of kielbasa for our visits. I deeply regret not being able to make it down to see you during your stay in the hospital but I will always remember you as a great friend and uncle. Rest in peace Uncle Fred. - Posted by: george fedorak (family freind ) on: Dec 03, 2014
